Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic patch cable delivers 1 Gbit/s data transfer rates, supporting high-speed network applications with minimal signal loss. The multimode fiber construction with 62.5/125 µm dimensions is optimized for use with LED-based transmission equipment commonly found in LAN and data center environments.
The cable features a duplex design with two separate fiber strands, enabling full-duplex communication for improved network efficiency. Both ends terminate with ST connectors in a male configuration, providing a bayonet-style locking mechanism that ensures secure connections and prevents accidental disconnections during operation.
Key Product Advantages
This Black Box patch cable combines practical length with professional-grade construction for dependable network performance. The 65.6-foot reach provides flexibility in rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel installations without requiring intermediate connections that could introduce signal degradation.
Reliable Connectivity
ST connectors offer secure bayonet-style locking that maintains optical alignment and prevents connection slippage during network operation.
- Dual-fiber duplex design
- Precision-polished connectors
- Consistent signal transmission
Safety & Compliance
The OFNR-rated PVC jacket meets fire safety standards for riser applications, while the orange color provides clear visual identification as multimode fiber.
- Fire-resistant construction
- TAA compliant
- Hong Kong origin with quality manufacturing
Deployment / Use Cases
This fiber optic patch cable is ideal for connecting network equipment within data centers, server rooms, and enterprise network closets. The 65.6-foot length accommodates typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel distances while maintaining signal integrity.
Common applications include linking fiber optic switches to servers, connecting network storage devices, extending backbone connections between network segments, and patching fiber distribution panels. The multimode construction with 62.5/125 µm fiber works effectively with existing LED-based network equipment for distances up to several hundred meters at 1 Gbit/s speeds.

FAQ
What type of fiber does this cable use?
This cable uses multimode fiber with a 62.5/125 µm core/cladding specification. Multimode fiber is designed for short to medium-distance transmissions and works effectively with LED-based network equipment commonly found in data centers and enterprise networks.
What connectors are on each end of this patch cable?
Both ends feature ST connectors in a male configuration. Each end has two ST connectors (for a total of four connectors) to support the duplex design, which enables simultaneous bidirectional data transmission over separate fiber strands.
What is the maximum data transfer rate supported?
This fiber optic patch cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s. This speed is suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications and provides sufficient bandwidth for most enterprise network connections between switches, routers, servers, and storage devices.
What does the OFNR jacket rating mean?
OFNR stands for Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser. This rating indicates the cable jacket meets fire safety standards for vertical installations between floors or in riser applications. The PVC material resists flame propagation while maintaining flexibility for installation in conduit or cable trays.
